As if that wasn't enough, she is also tasked with binding a dangerous Free Magic creature rampaging through the city, using just her Berserker's anger. She then becomes ensnared in a plot to remove the old and weary King from the throne and install her mother as a puppet Queen. She loves tracking and hunting in the Great Forest near her home town of Estwael, and so when she and her parents relocate to the capital, Belisaere, she can't wait to escape from the boring life of luxury: potential marriage and politics that will tie her down for the rest of her days. The main character is sixteen-year-old Clariel, daughter of one of the most prestigious families in the Kingdom and a close relation to both the Abhorsen and the King. The prequel to the three Old Kingdom series titles (Sabriel, Lirael and Abhorsen), Clariel is set around 600 years before the start of Sabriel.
